SOUTHERN MAN - GREG ILES KARTONIERT (TB)

The hugely anticipated new Penn Cage novel from the #1 New York Times bestselling author of the
Natchez Burning trilogy and Cemetery Road  about a man?and a town?rocked by anarchy and tragedy
but unbowed in the fight to save those they love. Fifteen years after the events of the Natchez
Burning trilogy  Penn Cage is alone. Nearly all his loved ones are dead  his old allies gone.
But Penn's self-imposed exile comes to an abrupt end when a brawl at a Bienville music festival
triggers a shooting?one that nearly takes the life of his daughter Annie. Before the stunned
populace can process the tragedy  an arsonist begins torching antebellum plantation homes in
Bienville. When an unknown Black group claims the fires as acts of justice  panic ensues 
driving the Mississippi River town to the brink of war. When Penn's closest friend in Bienville
is shot to death on the street by a county deputy  mass protests ignite  and the community
descends into open hostilities. State and county politicos use the mayhem as an excuse to
dissolve the city government and seize control  and enraged activists begin converging on the
town from far-away states to see their own brand of justice done. In Southern Man  Greg Iles
returns to the riveting style and historic depth that made the Natchez Burning trilogy a
searing masterpiece and hurls the narrative fifteen years forward into our current moment?where
America teeters on the fence between anarchy and salvation.
